Muscular and Metabolic Adaptations to Exercise to Benefit High-Risk Workforce

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of three different exercise programs (e.g. low-intensity, medium-intensity, high-intensity) administered for six months on health-related physical fitness, biochemical variables and general health outcomes in high-risk employees, with about 2000 volunteers will participate in the randomized and repeated-measure study.
